Adam + Sara

What a wonderful fall afternoon with a super fun couple! Sara and Adam were a blast to hang out with on my birthday this past Tuesday! We met up in the Northwest Burbs for a beautiful engagement shoot. I’m really looking forward to the wedding in June!

Corey + Mary

What a pleasure it was so work with Corey and Mary. Their sense of humor, love for eachother, and lightheartedness is so contagious!! Since running off to Vegas 5 months ago – plans for their wedding changed a bit since they first booked with me. But as many of you know – I’m flexible! Corey and Mary shared some alone time outside before meeting up with family for portraits (which I was delighted to be a part of)! Then after portraits we walked over to Carlucci’s for a delicious afternoon reception. It was a personal day filled with lots of laughs and love in which I am so glad I was able to be part.

Cary + Christina

When you’re blessed with wonderful light, the bluest sky you can dream of, Chicago, and Cary + Christina – you just can’t go wrong. Cary, a musician and my husband’s rockin’ cousin, will be tying the knot with the lovely Christina next April. We had a great time exploring and fooling around – I’m looking forward to the wedding!!

Trisha + Jeff

While in Des Moines last weekend I had the honor of shooting for my best friend Trisha. Trisha and Jeff are getting married next July in Minneapolis. Since they didn’t think I could be the Matron of Honor and the Photographer – I don’t know why!! They asked if I would shoot their engagement session – OF COURSE!! I was so happy we were able to share this special time together.
